    NY Medical Malpractice & Personal Injury Lawyer Gerry Oginski Explains

    You sued your doctor.
    You sued the hospital where you had surgery.
    All for medical malpractice.
    For causing you harm and injury.
    The doctor and hospital you sued don't believe they did anything wrong.
    "We'll see you at trial," their attorney tells your lawyer.
    You spend years litigating your case.
    There's no end in sight.
    One day your lawyer calls you to tell you that as your case was getting closer to trial, the defense attorney called to make a settlement offer.
    You're shocked.
    You thought they'd never offer a dime.
    You can't believe they waited all these years before starting to negotiate.
    Your lawyer tells you what they've offered.
    You're upset.
    You're angry.
    You're outraged at their offer.
    Your lawyer then gives you his opinion about their offer.
    He tells you that it's a fantastic settlement offer and you're not going to get another dime from them during settlement discussions. He suggests you accept their offer and settle your case now.
    You're confused.
    You're not clear.
    You want your day in court.
    You want the Judge to hear your case.
    You want six members of the community, the jury, to hear your case.
    You want to publicize what happened to you.
    You're not interested in settling your case now.
    The defense had their chance to settle early on and they blew it.
    Now you want a jury to decide your case.
    What do you do?
    Do you listen to your attorney?
    Do you reject the offer?
    What happens if you reject their offer?
    Watch the video to learn the answers to those questions.

    You’re a legend. Lawmed10 popped up on my feed and man, you have come a long way. Truly, I don’t think anyone has more well documented videos on personal injury than you. Even back in the early days, you were way ahead of your time seeking to document these things on UA-cam. Legendary!

    A commercial running in metro Detroit
    "The lawyers need the money more than the victims."
    Seems a civil rights case against government, a government that has pre-punished me, humiliated me, abused me while locked up, wants the taxpayers to think the money goes to the victim.
    The lawyer I couldn't afford, gives me credit to obtain justice that I can't pre-pay for.
    This attorney gets 40% plus fees, in Michigan a civil rights case wins attorneys fees.
    The case has been hush hush, one defendant has a protection order for herself on the case.
    A trial seems to be the only way to clear my name.
    I never committed any crime.
    Some people think my case was dismissed over a technicality, or I must have said or done something to be arrested.
    It was and is a nightmare case.
    I had a heart attack 5 months into a malicious prosecution. I had to appear 8 days later, no postponement, except when they needed it.
    I am told it my heart attack had nothing to do with my case.
    Since the attorneys get most of the money, I get their future voters to know what they did and a chance at clearing my tarnished name.
    I am gambling on justice.

    Gerry, if your client is extremely unreasonable, can you tell him that you don't believe that you would be able to represent him and ask him to hand over the case to another attorney?

    Question Sir, once you settle how long will it take to get the money and Is there paper work saying what was offered. Keep up the great Videos ⚖️

    • @NYMedicalMalpractice
      @NYMedicalMalpractice  2 роки тому +1

      The answer is, it depends. It depends on the state laws. In New York, your attorney should know the answer and along with your check you will be provided a detailed list of all the expenses.

  • @shawnh6726
    @shawnh6726 2 роки тому

    Gerry in NY how long does it usually take for things to start happening once a lawyer files a complaint. And could a case be settlement in a matter of couple months rather than year or two if the evidence against the defendant is clear as day.

    • @NYMedicalMalpractice
      @NYMedicalMalpractice  2 роки тому +1

      The answer is, with many things legal, it depends. Once a lawsuit started and properly filed, the people you are suing have a certain amount of time within which to answer the allegations. If they do not answer the allegations in a timely manner, that will temporary derail the case and lead to other steps that must be taken first.

  • @JA-wb5my
    @JA-wb5my 2 роки тому +1

    Or maybe your attorney doesn’t want to go to trial because of the expense and all the work and time that comes with it…. Such a difficult decision, I would strongly recommend anyone in this situation to try and read all sides including your own.

    Thank you so much for your videos. I recently commented how you have helped answer questions that my lawyer would not. I have since fired him and retained another lawyer. My question is: Can my ex-lawyer, who was abusive all along, cause any harm in any actions to my case because he is upset that I fired him? Can he withhold, alter, or prejudice my records or my case in any way. Is my current attorney required to split a settlement "evenly" with the former attorney, even though the former attorney did not do his due diligence to accurately stress important and key points of my case, and instead caused me great stress, and was an abusive "bully?".
    Great thanks to you sir

    What happens if the offer the attorney recommended gets turned down by the client. But the insurance company that hired the defense attorney to take on a case refuses to go to trial? Can that happen?

  • @rjvagv1

    Not to question your intelligence, when a client is feeling pressured final offer without documentation, as in verbal stating it is their final offer without a deadline given. Should be in "documentation" for reassurance to present to their clients.
    Take it Gerry you could ask the defense for this to be in documentation over verbal?

    • @NYMedicalMalpractice
      @NYMedicalMalpractice  2 роки тому

      Sometimes. Sometimes negotiations happen quickly and over the phone and one side places deadlines on an offer.
